Of the death of Christ, the price he paid, and the purchase he made.…
Of the death of Christ, the price he paid, and the purchase he made. Or, the satisfaction, and merit of the death of Christ cleared, the universality of redemption thereby oppugned: and the doctrine concerning these things formerly delivered in a treatise against universal redemption vindicated from the exceptions, and objections of Mr Baxter. / By J. Owen, minister of the gospel.Of the death of Christ, the price he paid, and the purchase he made.

1 By Right I understand, Jus in general, now jus est, quod justum est: Aug. in Psal. 144. sub. Fon. That is right, which it is just should be. And Quiquid rectum est, justum est: A•sel. de verit. Cap. 13. it is just, all that should be, ⟨p. 70⟩which hath a Rectitude in it self. Farther; What this justum is, Aquinas tells you, 22. ae. q. 57. a. 1. c. justum est quod respondet secundum aliquam aequalitatem alteri. Then a thing is just when it stands in some equality unto those things whereunto it relates. And this Equality or Adaequation of things is Twofold.
